Minus "processing fees"... ofc.
Flying will ease up once the controllers come back to work, but there's a question I've got: How many of those controllers will stay at their jobs in, say, the next twelve months? I bet the FAA sees an increase in their manpower issues, which were already critical before this shutdown. How many gov't mules lost their jobs, and even though they're being invited back, how many will return? I wouldn't want to work for anyone who treats their workforce like that.
Intended robo-wipe? Probably not. Intentional disruption? Absolutely.
